anoncoin's Introduction

The Anoncoin Project

2020,Nov 27th from GroundRod

Just started a couple wording changes here & realized the tons of time needed to update our documentation. First I want everyone to know, Groundrod is looking forward to a return to this project. Spit & polish documentation part timer, Coder of sorts & will try to bring us all current as to how the Anoncoin blockchain has been doing, many years in the rear view mirror now. Can't stop wondering, how has the Difficulty Retarget PID controllers performance been? Stay tuned...

NOTE: Old, as yet unedited or updated material below Overview

Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin use public ledgers to keep balances correct between wallets. As Bitcoin and others are increasingly used, wallet addresses (and their balances) will increasingly be tied to real world identities.

Just like people prefer not to show others their bank accounts, they will not want this level of exposure on their cryptocurrency wallets.

A move to cryptocurrency which keeps sender addresses and balances are private is inevitable.

Anoncoin (ANC) is a peer-to-peer digital cryptocurrency that focuses on privacy and anonymity for its users. Created in June 2013, it is the first and only currency to have built-in support for both the I2P darknet and Tor network that conceal the IP address of the user. Anoncoin will soon be implementing Zerocoin, which will allow users to make payments anonymously, without revealing their anoncoin public addresses.

anoncoin's Issues

build failed on Ubuntu

i try to build from sources of current master branch a938862
under Ubuntu 16
and follow manual https://anoncoin.github.io/How_to_build_Anoncoin_from_source/
but after cmd

git clone https://github.com/Anoncoin/anoncoin.git
cd anoncoin
./autogen.sh
cd depends
make -j 2

i getting these build errors

Discussion | Support ZK-STARKs

Goal: Implement and Support ZK-STARKs in AnonCoin
Description: Let's consider how to integrate and use ZK-STARKs, possibly leveraging the work upstream.
Why?: To make transactions full anonymous and verifiable.

Want to support this issue? Post a bounty on it! We accept bounties via BountySource.

Build & test pipeline

We need to setup something like travis or alternatives. Assigning it to us that do infra.

Daemon confused about net

Seems like the testnet node tries to contact mainnet nodes. This has to be fixed.

Keep track of, update, find translators - and maintenance of translations (Transifex)

g++ compatibility

due to 57ebf75 only g++-6 or higher can compile code. this isnt a good idea.

Installation should run on i2p, at least by default, if not always

One of the benefits of Anoncoin is to protect user privacy when transacting online. It is counterintuitive to run on clearnet by default. We should configure nodes run on i2p by default.

"make check" tests do not pass

When I run make check, here is the output:

$ make check
Making check in src
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make  check-TESTS check-local
FAIL: test/test_anoncoin

make[2]: *** [check-am] Error 2
make[1]: *** [check-recursive] Error 1

Update libsam3

Currently working on libsam3 updates for I2P, and I'll be using ANC as a example application for integration, upgrading the current I2P code in ANC as well in the same task.

Website is down

Hi, the website is down for quite a while now, can someone fix it or transfer ownership of the project over to someone who can maintain it? thanks

Make all unittests work for ANC

We need unittests, that's not litecoin testdata but anoncoin. Helping solving this issue will give bounty rewards. @oyvkva we need a bounty for contributors here.

"make deploy" does not work

When running on a mac to produce the dmg, I get the following error:

Sync stuck at hard fork

Syncing has been working seamlessly until block 557107, where it is stuck.

Here is what I see:

and this goes on and on.

Every once in a while I receive messages like this:

and this:

Any help kicking this along is much appreciated!

Compiling latest release on a Mac

I am trying to compile the latest release (https://github.com/Anoncoin/anoncoin/releases/tag/5e441d8) to work on my Mac.

Per a Slack chat, I am adding all of the errors I get during the process here:

Aside from the warnings, the key error is that miniupnpc has been modified in the OS since this code has been tested on a Mac.

I ran configure without miniupnpc to see how it goes:

Bootstrap.dat does not work beyond a certain block height

Per my conversation with @oyvkva on Slack the bootstrap.dat file does not help with block hight much higher than 200K.

As we build wallets for more consumer-y folks, an installation process that takes days will surely limit the number of wallets that will be installed.
